To pay tribute to Daniel J. Harrington, S.J. for his many contributions to help bridge the historic 
chasm between Judaism and Christianity—and to mark the 2009 publication of his book The 
Synoptic Gospels Set Free: Preaching Without Antisemitism—the Center for Christian-Jewish 
Learning sponsored this Colloquium. It opened with a presentation by Daniel Harrington, S.J. 
Three panelists—Dr. Christopher Leighton, Fr. David Michael, and Celia Sirois—with academic 
and pastoral experience in the North American context, engaged with Fr. Harrington, each    
other and the audience to explore the pastoral and educational implications of Harrington’s           
presentation and book.
